History of Procuniar Workshop

Established in 1970 by Stephen
Procuniar, the New York based Procuniar Workshop collaborates with a variety of contemporary artists to create unique and editioned
works on paper as well as a steady output of prints, painting, sculpture, and photography, specializing in the production of prints and works on paper.

We work with a small circle of artists to develop ongoing projects
in a variety of media. Our shop functions as a research facility
where the wide spectrum of contemporary art is explored through
the lens of printmaking.

Numerous institutions have acquired our works, such as The Museum of Modern Art New York, The Kunstmuseum Bern, The
Baltimore Museum of Art, The Fogg Art Museum of the Harvard University Art Museums, The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture
Garden, The Museum of Fine Arts Boston, The Neuberger Museum of Art at the State University of New York at Purchase, and The
New York Public Library.

The Procuniar Workshop is a studio specializing in the production of prints and works on paper. Process is an integral part of the working environment. Bridging the speed of painting and the slowness of sculptural mediums, Printmaking encompasses both a dimensionality and a flatness and a history that, in its hidden form, almost requires an education in technique in order to fully understand the conceptual framework of a printed work of art.

At the Procuniar Workshop, we strive to achieve works in which all of history and education are integrated with technical form and that, at its core, does not deny a full involvement with life lived to the fullest.

We use traditional printmaking techniques such as lithography, intaglio, etching, mezzotint, screenprinting, engraving, oil based woodcut, water based ukio-e woodcut, linoleum, carborundum, monoprint, monotype, and others as well as participating in emerging digital technologies.
